I have been wire wrapping for 8 years and I know how to make my own earring wires. I just like to see if there are other ideas to be had. Did you know if you bought a jig you make your ear wires that way to. That seens to be what's comforable for me. Great idea using a PVC pipe to make ear wires.

I believed that when making your own earwires, that it was important to round the end off with a burr tool. A jeweler told me once that many so-called ear sensitivities and problems with earrings and metals were actually from trauma to the ear caused by rough ear hooks.

Has anyone else heard this?

I love Beading Daily.com! I've downloaded lots of projects, and the instructions are always clear and easy to follow. My favorite earring pattern is Crystal Corona, one of the ones featured in your e-Book. Here's a fun holiday twist. Make them in green crystals (with size 15/0 clear silver-lined seedbead)s. However, when you add your final set of crystals, substitute red (every other bead on the outside will be red), and you've got a cute set of Christmas wreath earrings.These work up very fast. I've made these for myself and given a few as gifts to friends, and they love them!
